Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $880,595 – $1,177,696, from 12 comparable Wayne sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Wayne assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,031,677 home should be assessed near $369,547.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $25,647 below what the ratio math suggests (6.9%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Wayne home
$3.337 Schools · 56% $1.251 County · 21% $1.409 Town · 23%
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Wayne sale · assessed ÷ market

Paying about right
This home's ratio lands inside Wayne's normal band. The drift hasn't singled it out — no case for a tax appeal.
